Every Labor Day, between one million and three million revelers descend on Brooklyn to watch the New York Caribbean Carnival Parade<\/a>. \u00a0A lot can happen with so many people in one place, making the parade one of the craziest things to do on Labor Day.\u00a0 You\u2019ll see outlandish costumes, highly interpretive dancing, and taste some authentic Caribbean dishes.\u00a0 Admission is free.\u00a0 So, come celebrate Caribbean heritage, listen to some regional music, and watch one of the most outrageous parades in the country!\u00a0 It\u2019s what to do on Labor Day in New York!<\/p>\n

\"free-things<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Come sail away during the Los Angeles Fleet Week<\/a> in San Pedro!\u00a0 As one of Los Angeles\u2019s most exciting things to do on Labor Day, Fleet Week enjoys success wherever it throws anchor.\u00a0 It represents a rare opportunity to tour military vessels returning from active duty.\u00a0 Ships from the U.S. Navy, U.S.M.C., and Coast Guard will dock in San Pedro, allowing the public to board and unleashing countless sailors and marines on the local populace.\u00a0 So, come see equipment demonstrations, the S.T.E.M.

Chicago Jazz Festival<\/h4>\n

\"free-things<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

One of the most popular things to do on Labor Day in Chicago is attending the Chicago Jazz Festival<\/a>!\u00a0 In 2017, the Chicago Jazz Festival left the traditional venue of Grant Park and made a new home in Millennium Park.\u00a0 But, despite the change in location, it still drew in well over 150,000 Jazz-lovers.\u00a0 Those attendance numbers reflect the cover charge: $0.00.\u00a0 We find it incomprehensible that once upon a time, you could go listen to Miles Davis, Ella Fitzgerald, B.B. King, Dizzy Gillespie, and Count Basie for free!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Annual Labor Day Concert<\/a> in Washington D.C. brings everyone to the West Front of the U.S. Capitol Building.\u00a0 Feel free to pack a picnic, sit on the West Lawn, and listen to the National Symphony Orchestra.\u00a0 Nearly the entire area around the Capitol Building gets shut down to traffic and music fans come out to enjoy a free performance.\u00a0 It\u2019s basically one of the only things to do on Labor Day in Washington D.C.\u00a0 So, you can definitely expect to see some crowds.\u00a0 Also, if you find yourself pressed for time, you can always come early and listen to the rehearsal at 3:30 p.m.\u00a0 You\u2019ll avoid the hordes, too!<\/p>\n
